IMAP Germany advises the shareholders of Thömen Group on its acquisition by Hüffermann Krandienst. Thömen Spedition GmbH & Co.

With this acquisition and its takeover of Eisele in 2021, the HÜFFERMANN GROUP is positioning itself as one of the leading providers of cranes and heavy lifting, as well as heavy transport services in Germany.

Founded in 1927, Thömen offers a diverse portfolio of services including the provision of telescopic, lattice boom and crawler cranes, as well as planning and execution of heavy transports with special equipment trucks, up to and including assembly. Furthermore, entire projects can be managed as a onestop-shop operation. The company serves customers throughout Germany and has over 130 employees in Hamburg, Brunsbüttel, Potsdam, and Leipzig. With almost 100 years of tradition and more than 50 years of experience as a crane service provider, the HÜFFERMANN GROUP boasts a modern fleet, and provides a complete offering for services related to crane and heavy load logistics. In total, the group includes more than 1,100 cranes, trucks, machines and rental equipment used at projects and large construction sites all over Germany and Europe.

The IMAP Germany team consisting of Torsten Denker, Hans-Hasso Kersten, Patrick Fritscher and Mathias Bosse exclusively advised the shareholders of the Thömen group through all phases of the structured M&A process until successful closing. Following its advisory on the sale of Horst Pöppel Logistik & Transport GmbH & Co. KG to AUCTUS Capital Partners, this is now IMAP Germany’s second successful transaction in the Logistics sector in 2022.
